Draft Grade — Texans
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The Texans cashed the board's mistake on Marks: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Woody Marks slide, and the Texans were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 25. Highway robbery.

Noel has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Their trades came out a wash either way.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get the heartbeat of the defense. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jaylin Noel
A real head-scratcher, Jaylin Noel in pick 63 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Donovan Jackson in the Round 3 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Nice patience on Jared Wilson, who had no business lasting to No. 127. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick167 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A premium they did not need to pay, JJ Pegues a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick243 Rnd7 Woody Marks
They barely believed it either: Woody Marks still on the board at the 243rd pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at pick No. 256 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
